"We recommend that caregivers let family members who are looking forward to a visit know that they may notice some changes like forgetfulness or confused behavior," said Brennan. "They can tell family and friends that a warm smile and gentle touch on the shoulder is always appreciated even when other things are changing."

For those with questions and concerns about Alzheimer's, call 800-272-3900. The 24/7 Helpline is free and confidential. Information and an online Helpline are available at www.alz.org/MANH.

The Alzheimer's Association provides education and support for those dealing with Alzheimer's. Offices are located in Watertown, Raynham, Springfield and Worcester, MA and Bedford and Lebanon, NH.
